Does anyone have information regarding supplmental HCFA/CMS1500 use for additional diagnoses, other than the four present on a hard copy CMS1500 with specific relation to Personal Injury/MedPay claims in a chiropractic office?
I have the supplmental HCFA form and understand its use; however, I have an issue with the chiropractor "adding" additional diagnosis (sometimes up to 12!) under the direction of an attorney in order to max out the claim when processed through Collosus by the adjustor. These diagnoses are not commonly used by a DC, and I am not happy about the entire scenario. How could each visit have 12 treating diagnoses?
Any thoughts/past experience greatly appreciated!
